Description
Special Comics #1 (MLJ, 1941) CGC FN- 5.5 Off-white pages. This is the de facto Hangman #1, as that series began with issue #2 after this successful tryout proved the character would sell well in his own book. The issue starts off with the Hangman retelling his origin and the death of his brother the Comet, both from Pep Comics #17. Also in this issue is the origin of the Boy Buddies team (Dusty and Roy the Super-Boy), which involves a brief appearance by the two sidekicks' adult pals the Wizard and the Shield. Harry Lucey drew the cover and the Hangman feature, with arms stretching across panel borders and other Simon and Kirby-like flourishes. Paul Reinman drew the Boy Buddies feature. Overstreet 2006 FN 6.0 value = $888. CGC census 5/06: 1 in 5.5, 2 higher.CGC Grader Notes:
